What platform are you watching on?

What kind of internet do you have?

I can’t answer either of these questions. I’m a dinosaur when it comes to this sort of thing. I just turn things on and they work. Except for Kayo

    Platform is Chromecast, you mentioned. Shouldn’t be an issue. Likely you have slow or congested net pushing your feed back and back.

    Change the quality to SD only and click jump to live (little square live button at the bottom). If that doesn’t work, it could be a very specific bug with the setup you have - try opening up Kayo website on laptop/phone/pc, and test if it’s delayed there also.

    You may potentially need another way to watch it, there are many ways/apps to get it on TV without spending money that you might already have (kids Xbox/PS, hdmi from laptop etc.)

    Sounds like you attend every game so it’s probably not a massive issue for you unless you watch other games too.

    Very strange problem GW. As others have said the delay should be around 30 seconds

    I can for example listen to the cricket on the radio and if there's a good shot or a wicket have time to look up and see the bowler starting his run up.

    Years ago when kayo used to buffer due to my old internet one might be 5 minutes behind by the end of a game but 15 mins is weird.

    i think you have probably blundered into a time warp and are now a time traveller

    I do watch other games but the delay is okay because I’m not so invested in them. I just turn off notifications on my phone so there’s no spoilers. But this is different… this is our game and the only way to avoid spoilers is to tum my phone off completely.

    Thank you for the suggestions. I will try each one.

    I’ve got three friends who have the same length delay. One of them is Mrs Fritta. She contacted Kayo and all they did was to tell her how to go about unsubscribing. How’s that for customer service, huh 🙄

    Thanks so much all. I never knew there was the jump to live option. And now it’s working perfectly.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
